shooting m atcll.

The attendance at Healdmoor range
yesterday afternoon, at the rife match
for the badge was small but this no doubt
was owing TO the weather. 1t was expect.
ed that several members of the militia
would be present to contest for this badge,
which is put no weekly, but the clouds
and rain no doubt deferred them from
coming. consequently the match was be-
tween Floyd and Geyer The Standard

PoWDERLEY's UTTERANcEs.
The Leader of the Knights Demands
a New National Government.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 1T. V. Powderly
fills nearly whole page of the Journal of
United Labor, to be issued on Saturday,
with series Of signed editorials. In the
course of three column article, demanding
a new government, he says: "It is openly
charged that majority Of the United
States Senate owe their election to the rail-
road or national bank influence. This state
ment has ney er been contradicted. If it is
not true, the men so charged owe it to them
selves and to the country at large to prose-
cute those who make the charges and prove
that they have wronged them; either that
or resign from the positions which their very
presence disgraces If it is true that ma
jority of the United States enate owe their
seats to such influences, how can we expect
to have the Constitution and laws of the
United States respected and obeyed by the
people who witness such damnable barter
ing away of the rights of the people? One
would suppose that that the government of
the United States could put stop to gamb-
ling in the necessaries OF life, to gambling in
railroad securities Tor lack of securities) one
would naturally suppose that the govern
ment could create panic among the men of
Wall street. But such is not the case, for
Wall street can create panic inside of twen-
ty-four hours in spite OF the government,
and then compel the government to come to
the aid of the Shyl0cks who are skinning the
people. How long will the people continue
to respect a government that allows men to
put up the Nations rights to the highest
bidder? How long viii the people continue
to uphold government that turns an ear
single to the voice of wealth and passes by
on the other side when the voice of the com
mon people Is raised in behalf Of justice?
How long will the government-the people
continue to allow few to gamble in the life
blood of the common people of the land?
The day has come to institute new govern
ment by taking hold of the affairs of the
government and effect restoration of the
rights of the people,"

girls. Her owners, the Davis Brothers, took
the ladies from the Banner and brought
them TO town. The Waterlilly was the
first fush-decked yacht owned here. She
was built for Col. William o. Winchester.
He was then at the head Of the largest pro-
vision house In the country, which killed a
thousand head Of cattle weekly at Lechmere
Point Cambridge, and had a large pork and
beef packing establishment in Cincinnati.
There had been but few private yachts
owned in Boston. Hon. James BOwdoin, of
College memory, had one at his famous sum
mer establishment on the Island Of Naushon,
Buzzard's Bay. The most Of the island was
occupied by herds Of deer In their native
wildness. Bowdoin died there In October,
1911. AS the Boston builders improved In
models, the old yachts were sold for small
prices. The Davis Brothers, sons Of Moses
Davis. were in some business In New Or
leans and usually came 10 their native town
for the summer. They bought the Water
lilly. for their own use. She was a snowy
boat, painted white. She was longer and
drew more water than any Portland boat.
She was schooner rigged, with, think, two
jibs. She was several times taken 10 Boston
and added to, or altered, but II she ever got
ahead of the best Portland built boats II was

boats, but have named most Of the large

more years ago, Of which / knew nothing.

that over 3cc0 people were on the East Liv-
ermore campmeeting grounds this afternoon

the platform, in accordance with the oft ex-
pressed wish of Mr.. Allen. DIR. Charles

Goodwin, b. Goodwin, and Thomas B. Smith
officiated as pail bearers. As the procession
passed into the cemetery and on to the Allen
lot, Rev. Mr.. Bean read aloud the burial SER
vice of the Methodist church. At the grove
DR.. Cullis read the 18th chapter of 1st Cor
rinthians. after which selections of
scripture were read by Rev. r. b.
Howard of West Medford, Mass, and
also by Rev. NJ. Bean. The casket was
then opened and opportunity given to view
the features of the dead clergyman.
On the casket was plain plate, bearing
the following inscription:
Rev. John Allen, died August 81, sS7, aged
81 years and months.
After closing the lid Of the casket,a fervent
prayer was offered by DR.. Cullis, followed
by the reciting of the Lords prayer iii uni
son and the benediction by Rev. r. B. How
ard, after which the casketlwas lowered to its
last resting place by the side Of the dead
tastefully trimmed with evergreens, autumn
leaves and choice flowers and vines by the
loving hands of friends, and after the casket
had been lowered the flowers and evergreenS
were thrown upon it.

THE SOLDIERS MONUMENT.

The representation of the Soldiers Monu-
ment, which we present to our readers this
morning. gives capital idea of Mr.. F. H.
Fassett's design, which was selected from
all among the others by the executive COM
mittee, July 7th. 1t was required that the
monument should not be less than sixty feet
high, and the cost was limited to s35.Oc0. If
the completion Of the work would cost more
than this sum, Mr.. Fassett was to modify
his design, without changing the general
character, so as to comply with this eondi-
tion. The requirement has now been met.
The original design represented four figures
in the inches on the four sides Of the monu-
ment. With view to economy, two Of the
inches will be filed with tablets for inscrip-
tions. The height Of the monument proper
will be sixty feet, the statue ON the summit
will be fifteen feet more, making seventy
five feet in ALL The engraving is drawn to

scale and the other dimensions can readily
be ascertained by comparison. The point Of
view is the sidewalk on the ncrth side Of
Congress street, few feet west Of the Long
fellow mansion.
The three figures now contemplated are
Peace on the summit, Union in the wester
niche, and Justice in the eastern niche.
These are mere suggestions, however, a.
yet, which may be modified by the commit
tee. The semi-circular fountain and basin
may also be regarded as suggestions. The
material Is Of course to be gray granite, and
red granite win be used for ornament. Mr..
Fassett Is in conference with the Conway
Granite Company, the Hallowell Granite
Company, the Dodlin Granite Company and
other owners Of granite quarries and works,
but no contract has vet been concluded or
will be until the time to begin work ap-
proaches.
